As if social media didn’t already pervade our everyday lives, Twitter and Comcast just signed a deal to make our lives that much more convenient. Twitter will be implementing a “See It” button on users’ feeds when Comcast properties are tweeted about. For example, if your friend tweets about Chicago Fire, the “See It” button will be displayed. If you are a Comcast subscriber, clicking the button will automatically launch the show on your computer or internet-ready TVs. Universal films will follow suit, although the “See It” button will link to a Fandango page for the film mentioned.
Do you think this new implementation will be a power move for both Twitter and Comcast, or is the deal invading too much privacy? …as if posting on a public community forum like Twitter was private in the first place.
